The Ultimate Fighter 14 Finale takes place at The Pearl at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas. The night’s main card, including the tourney finals and a headliner between coaches Michael Bisping and Jason “Mayhem” Miller, airs on Spike TV. The prelims stream on Facebook.

All of the fighters except for Clopton, who lost an elimination-round matchup to Neace, were official “TUF 14″ cast members. Akira Corassani, who is injured, was the only cast member not booked for the finale.

Brimage (Team Bisping’s No. 3 pick) knocked out Bryson Hansen before a submission loss to Caraway in the quarterfinals. In pro competition, he looks to build off a 2010 TKO of UFC vet Kyle Bradley in regional competition. He takes on former teammate Bass (Team Bisping’s No. 4 pick), who submitted Karsten Lenjoint before a submission loss to Dennis Bermudez in the quarterfinals. In official competition, the Louisiana-based Bass is undefeated with six stoppage wins in 10 career victories. However, he hasn’t competed professionally in more than two years.

Siler (Team Miller’s No. 4 pick) upset early favorite Micah Miller via submission before a knockout loss to Diego Brandao in the quarterfinals. The seven-year pro looks for his 14th win in 16 fights when he takes on Clopton, who suffered a decision loss to Neace in the elimination round and didn’t actually make the “TUF 14″ cast. In pro competition, the five-year pro is undefeated with six wins and a draw, though he hasn’t logged a fight since November 2009.

Caraway (Team Miller’s No. 2 pick), meanwhile, advanced to the semifinals with a decision win over Eric Marriott and a submission of Brimage before a TKO loss to Diego Brandao. The big-show vet, who has experience with the WEC and Strikeforce, now meets teammate Neace (Team Miller’s No. 3. pick), who earned the decision win over Clopton before a quarterfinal loss to Akira Corassani. Neace, a 41-fight vet who turned pro in 2006, is 5-2 over his past seven fights.
